New heading “We may acquire future streams in which we have limited control and our interests in such streams may be subject to transfer or other related restrictions.”

New heading “Our ability to generate income from our digital asset holdings is subject to significant uncertainty, and yield opportunities may not develop or may fail to perform as expected.”
New heading “The First Tranche Assets —Bitcoin, Solana, and DevvE—can be subject to extreme price volatility, and declines in their value could materially and adversely affect our financial condition.”

New heading “Our cross-border operations require us to comply with anti-bribery and anti-corruption laws.”
New heading “We are subject to legal risks associated with our global operations.”
New heading “Carbon trading is heavily regulated and new legislation in the jurisdictions in which we operate may materially impact our operations.”
New heading “Because there are no current plans to pay cash dividends on our Common Shares for the foreseeable future, you may not receive any return on investment unless you sell your Common Shares at a price greater than what you paid for it.”

New heading “Risks Related to Being a Public Company Listed on the Nasdaq”
New heading “The Company’s failure to meet Nasdaq’s continued listing requirements could result in a delisting of its shares.”
New heading “Nasdaq may delist our securities from trading on its exchange, which could limit investors’ ability to make transactions in our securities and subject us additional trading restrictions.”

New heading “Changes in tax laws may affect the Company and its stockholders and other investors.”
New heading “Taxation of digital assets is complex and evolving.”
Removed heading “Risks Relating to the Company and our Management Team”
Removed heading “Potential conflicts of interest with other businesses of Auldbrass Partners or other businesses with which our officers or directors may have fiduciary or contractual obligations could negatively impact the performance of an investment in us.”
Removed heading “Our officers and directors will allocate their time to other businesses thereby causing conflicts of interest in their determination as to how much time to devote to our affairs. This conflict of interest could have a negative impact on our ability to complete our initial business combination.”
Removed heading “Certain of our officers and directors are now, and all of them may in the future become, affiliated with entities engaged in business activities similar to those intended to be conducted by us and, accordingly, may have conflicts of interest in allocating their time and determining to which entity a particular business opportunity should be presented.”
Removed heading “Our officers, directors, security holders and their respective affiliates may have competitive pecuniary interests that conflict with our interests.”
Removed heading “We may engage in a business combination with one or more target businesses that have relationships with entities that may be affiliated with our sponsor, officers, directors or existing holders which may raise potential conflicts of interest.”
Removed heading “We are dependent upon our officers and directors and their departure could adversely affect our ability to operate.”
Removed heading “Our ability to successfully effect our initial business combination and to be successful thereafter will be totally dependent upon the efforts of our key personnel, some of whom may join us following our initial business combination. The loss of key personnel could negatively impact the operations and profitability of our post-combination business.”
Removed heading “Our key personnel may negotiate employment or consulting agreements with a target business in connection with a particular business combination. These agreements may provide for them to receive compensation following our business combination and as a result, may cause them to have conflicts of interest in determining whether a particular business combination is the most advantageous.”
Removed heading “Past performance by our management team, Auldbrass Partners, members of our advisory board and their respective affiliates may not be indicative of future performance of an investment in us.”
Removed heading “Members of our management team and board of directors have significant experience as founders, board members, officers or executives of other companies. As a result, certain of those persons have been, may be, or may become, involved in proceedings, investigations and litigation relating to the business affairs of the companies with which they were, are, or may in the future be, affiliated. This may have an adverse effect on us, which may impede our ability to consummate an initial business combination.”
Removed heading “There is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a “going concern.””
Removed heading “Risks Relating to Our Search for, and Consummation of or Inability to Consummate, a Business Combination”
Removed heading “Our public stockholders may not be afforded an opportunity to vote on our proposed business combination, which means we may complete our initial business combination even if a majority of our public stockholders do not support such a combination.”
Removed heading “If we seek stockholder approval of our initial business combination, after approval of our board, our initial stockholders have agreed to vote in favor of such initial business combination, regardless of how our public stockholders vote.”
Removed heading “Your only opportunity to affect the investment decision regarding a potential business combination will be limited to the exercise of your right to redeem your shares from us for cash, unless we seek stockholder approval of the business combination.”
Removed heading “The ability of our public stockholders to redeem their shares for cash may make our financial condition unattractive to potential business combination targets, which may make it difficult for us to enter into a business combination with a target.”
Removed heading “The ability of our public stockholders to exercise redemption rights with respect to a large number of our shares may not allow us to complete the most desirable business combination or optimize our capital structure.”
Removed heading “The ability of our public stockholders to exercise redemption rights with respect to a large number of our shares could increase the probability that our initial business combination would not be consummated and that you would have to wait for liquidation in order to redeem your stock.”
Removed heading “The requirement that we complete our initial business combination within the prescribed time frame may give potential target businesses leverage over us in negotiating a business combination and may decrease our ability to conduct due diligence on potential business combination targets as we approach our dissolution deadline, which could undermine our ability to complete our business combination on terms that would produce value for our stockholders.”
Removed heading “Our search for a business combination, and any target business with which we ultimately consummate a business combination, may be materially adversely affected by major public health crises like the COVID-19 pandemic and the status of U.S. and global economy, including the debt and equity markets.”
Removed heading “We may not be able to complete our initial business combination within the prescribed time frame, in which case we would cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up and we would redeem our public shares and liquidate, in which case our public stockholders may only receive $10.20 per share, or less than such amount in certain circumstances, and our warrants will expire worthless.”
Removed heading “Because of our limited resources and the significant competition for business combination opportunities, it may be more difficult for us to complete our initial business combination. If we are unable to complete our initial business combination, our public stockholders may receive only approximately $10.20 per share on our redemption of our public shares, or less than such amount in certain circumstances, and our warrants will expire worthless.”
Removed heading “If we seek stockholder approval of our initial business combination, our sponsor, directors, officers, advisors and their affiliates may elect to purchase shares from public stockholders, which may influence a vote on a proposed business combination and reduce the public “float” of our Class A common stock.”
Removed heading “If a stockholder fails to receive notice of our offer to redeem our public shares in connection with our business combination, or fails to comply with the procedures for tendering its shares, such shares may not be redeemed.”
Removed heading “You will not be entitled to protections normally afforded to investors of many other blank check companies.”
Removed heading “If we seek stockholder approval of our initial business combination and we do not conduct redemptions pursuant to the tender offer rules, and if you or a “group” of stockholders are deemed to hold in excess of 15% of our Class A common stock, you will lose the ability to redeem all such shares in excess of 15% of our Class A common stock.”
Removed heading “If the net proceeds of our initial public offering and the sale of the private placement warrants not being held in the trust account are insufficient to allow us to operate until November 1, 2024 (if extended), we may be unable to complete our initial business combination, in which case our public stockholders may only receive $10.20 per share, or less than such amount in certain circumstances, and our warrants will expire worthless.”
Removed heading “If the net proceeds of our initial public offering and the sale of the private placement warrants not being held in the trust account are insufficient, it could limit the amount available to fund our search for a target business or businesses and complete our initial business combination and we will depend on loans from our sponsor or management team to fund our search for a business combination, to pay our franchise and income taxes and to complete our initial business combination. If we are unable to obtain these loans, we may be unable to complete our initial business combination.”
Removed heading “If third parties bring claims against us, the proceeds held in the trust account could be reduced and the per-share redemption amount received by stockholders may be less than $10.20 per share.”
Removed heading “We may not have sufficient funds to satisfy indemnification claims of our directors and officers, and our obligation to indemnify our directors and officers may have certain adverse consequences.”
Removed heading “Our directors may decide not to enforce the indemnification obligations of our sponsor, resulting in a reduction in the amount of funds in the trust account available for distribution to our public stockholders.”
Removed heading “If, after we distribute the proceeds in the trust account to our public stockholders, we file a bankruptcy petition or an involuntary bankruptcy petition is filed against us that is not dismissed, a bankruptcy court may seek to recover such proceeds, and we and our board may be exposed to claims of punitive damages.”
Removed heading “If, before distributing the proceeds in the trust account to our public stockholders, we file a bankruptcy petition or an involuntary bankruptcy petition is filed against us that is not dismissed, the claims of creditors in such proceeding may have priority over the claims of our stockholders and the per-share amount that would otherwise be received by our stockholders in connection with our liquidation may be reduced.”
Removed heading “If we are deemed to be an investment company under the Investment Company Act, we may be required to institute burdensome compliance requirements and our activities may be restricted, which may make it difficult for us to complete our business combination.”
Removed heading “Changes in laws or regulations or how such laws or regulations are interpreted or applied, or a failure to comply with any laws or regulations, may adversely affect FIAC’s business, including its ability to negotiate and complete its initial business combination, and results of operations.”
Removed heading “Our stockholders may be held liable for claims by third parties against us to the extent of distributions received by them upon redemption of their shares.”
Removed heading “We may not hold an annual meeting of stockholders until after we consummate of our initial business combination, and you will not be entitled to any of the corporate protections provided by such a meeting.”
Removed heading “Holders of Class A common stock will not be entitled to vote on any election of directors we hold prior to our initial business combination.”
Removed heading “Since only holders of our founder shares will have the right to vote on the election of directors prior to consummation of our initial business combination, Nasdaq may consider us to be a “controlled company” within the meaning of Nasdaq rules and, as a result, we may qualify for exemptions from certain corporate governance requirements.”
Removed heading “The grant of registration rights to our initial stockholders may make it more difficult to complete our initial business combination, and the future exercise of such rights may adversely affect the market price of our Class A common stock.”
Removed heading “Because we are not limited to a particular industry, sector or any specific target businesses with which to pursue our initial business combination, you will be unable to ascertain the merits or risks of any particular target business’ operations.”
Removed heading “We may seek acquisition opportunities in industries or sectors which may or may not be outside of our management’s area of expertise.”
Removed heading “A slowdown in economic growth in the markets that our business target operates in may materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, liquidity and results of operations, the value of our securities and the trading price of our shares following our business combination.”
Removed heading “Recent increases in inflation and interest rates in the United States and elsewhere could make it more difficult for us to consummate an initial business combination.”
Removed heading “Although we have identified general criteria and guidelines that we believe are important in evaluating prospective target businesses, we may enter into our initial business combination with a target that does not meet such criteria and guidelines, and as a result, the target business with which we enter into our initial business combination may not have attributes entirely consistent with our general criteria and guidelines.”
Removed heading “We may seek acquisition opportunities with a financially unstable business or an entity lacking an established record of revenue or earnings, which could subject us to volatile revenues or earnings or difficulty in retaining key personnel.”
Removed heading “We are not required to obtain an opinion from an independent investment banking firm or from an independent accounting firm, and consequently, you may have no assurance from an independent source that the price we are paying for the business is fair to our company from a financial point of view.”
Removed heading “We may issue additional common stock or preferred stock to complete our initial business combination or under an employee incentive plan after completion of our initial business combination. We may also issue shares of Class A common stock upon the conversion of the Class B common stock at a ratio greater than one-to-one at the time of our initial business combination as a result of the anti-dilution provisions contained in our amended and restated certificate of incorporation. Any such issuances would dilute the interest of our stockholders and likely present other risks.”
Removed heading “Resources could be wasted in researching acquisitions that are not completed, which could materially adversely affect subsequent attempts to locate and acquire or merge with another business. If we are unable to complete our initial business combination, our public stockholders may receive only approximately $10.20 per share, or less than such amount in certain circumstances, on the liquidation of our trust account and our warrants will expire worthless.”
Removed heading “Since our sponsor (including our officers and directors that directly or indirectly own founder shares) will lose their entire investment in us if our business combination is not completed, a conflict of interest may arise in determining whether a particular business combination target is appropriate for our initial business combination. In addition, as a result of the low price paid for the founder shares, our sponsor (including our officers and directors that directly or indirectly own founder shares) stands to make a substantial profit even if an initial business combination subsequently declines in value or is unprofitable for our public stockholders.”
Removed heading “We may issue notes or other debt securities, or otherwise incur substantial debt, to complete a business combination, which may adversely affect our leverage and financial condition and thus negatively impact the value of our stockholders’ investment in us.”
Removed heading “We may only be able to complete one business combination with the proceeds of our initial public offering and the sale of the private placement warrants, which will cause us to be solely dependent on a single business which may have a limited number of products or services. This lack of diversification may negatively impact our operations and profitability.”
Removed heading “We may attempt to simultaneously complete business combinations with multiple prospective targets, which may hinder our ability to complete our business combination and give rise to increased costs and risks that could negatively impact our operations and profitability.”
Removed heading “We may attempt to complete our initial business combination with a private company about which little information is available, which may result in a business combination with a company that is not as profitable as we suspected, if at all.”
Removed heading “We do not have a specified maximum redemption threshold. The absence of such a redemption threshold may make it possible for us to complete a business combination with which a substantial majority of our stockholders do not agree.”
Removed heading “In order to effectuate our initial business combination, we may seek to amend our amended and restated certificate of incorporation or governing instruments in a manner that will make it easier for us to complete our initial business combination but that our stockholders may not support.”
Removed heading “The provisions of our amended and restated certificate of incorporation that relate to our pre-business combination activity (and corresponding provisions of the agreement governing the release of funds from our trust account) may be amended with the approval of holders of 65% of our common stock, which is a lower amendment threshold than that of some other blank check companies. It may be easier for us, therefore, to amend our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and the trust agreement to facilitate the completion of an initial business combination that some of our stockholders may not support.”
Removed heading “Certain agreements related to our initial public offering may be amended without stockholder approval.”
Removed heading “We may be unable to obtain additional financing to complete our initial business combination or to fund the operations and growth of a target business, which could compel us to restructure or abandon a particular business combination.”
Removed heading “Our initial stockholders may exert a substantial influence on actions requiring a stockholder vote, potentially in a manner that you do not support.”
Removed heading “A provision of our warrant agreement may make it more difficult for us to consummate an initial business combination.”
Removed heading “Our warrants and founder shares may have an adverse effect on the market price of our Class A common stock and make it more difficult to effectuate our business combination.”
Removed heading “Because we must furnish our stockholders with target business financial statements, we may lose the ability to complete an otherwise advantageous initial business combination with some prospective target businesses.”
Removed heading “Compliance obligations under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act may make it more difficult for us to effectuate our initial business combination, require substantial financial and management resources, and increase the time and costs of completing an acquisition.”
Removed heading “Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation designates the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware as the sole and exclusive forum for certain types of actions and proceedings that may be initiated by our stockholders, which could limit our stockholders’ ability to obtain a favorable judicial forum for disputes with our company or our company’s directors, officers or other employees.”
Removed heading “If we effect our initial business combination with a company with operations or opportunities outside of the United States, we would be subject to a variety of additional risks that may negatively impact our operations.”
Removed heading “As the number of special purpose acquisition companies evaluating targets increases, attractive targets may become scarcer and there may be more competition for attractive targets. This could increase the cost of our initial business combination and could even result in our inability to find a target or to consummate an initial business combination.”
Removed heading “Changes in the market for directors and officers liability insurance could make it more difficult and more expensive for us to negotiate and complete an initial business combination.”
Removed heading “Subsequent to our completion of our initial business combination, we may be required to take write-downs or write-offs, restructuring and impairment or other charges that could have a significant negative effect on our financial condition, results of operations and our stock price, which could cause you to lose some or all of your investment.”
Removed heading “Our management may not be able to maintain control of a target business after our initial business combination.”
Removed heading “We may have a limited ability to assess the management of a prospective target business and, as a result, may affect our initial business combination with a target business whose management may not have the skills, qualifications or abilities to manage a public company, which could, in turn, negatively impact the value of our stockholders’ investment in us.”
Removed heading “You will not have any rights or interests in funds from the trust account, except under certain limited circumstances. To liquidate your investment, therefore, you may be forced to sell your public shares or warrants, potentially at a loss.”
Removed heading “Nasdaq may delist our securities from trading on its exchange, which could limit investors’ ability to make transactions in our securities and subject us to additional trading restrictions.”
Removed heading “We are not registering the shares of Class A common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants under the Securities Act or any state securities laws at this time, and such registration may not be in place when an investor desires to exercise warrants, thus precluding such investor from being able to exercise its warrants except on a cashless basis and potentially causing such warrants to expire worthless.”
Removed heading “If you exercise your public warrants on a “cashless basis,” you will receive fewer shares of Class A common stock from such exercise than if you were to exercise such warrants for cash.”
Removed heading “We may amend the terms of the warrants in a manner that may be adverse to holders with the approval by the holders of at least 50% of the then outstanding public warrants. As a result, the exercise price of your warrants could be increased, the exercise period could be shortened and the number of shares of our Class A common stock purchasable upon exercise of a warrant could be decreased, all without your approval.”
Removed heading “We may redeem your unexpired warrants prior to their exercise at a time that is disadvantageous to you, thereby making your warrants worthless.”
Removed heading “Because each unit contains one-half of one warrant and only a whole warrant may be exercised, the units may be worth less than units of other blank check companies.”
Removed heading “Our warrant agreement designates the courts of the State of New York or the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York as the sole and exclusive forum for certain types of actions and proceedings that may be initiated by holders of our warrants, which could limit the ability of warrant holders to obtain a favorable judicial forum for disputes with our company.”
Removed heading “Provisions in our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and Delaware law may inhibit a takeover of us, which could limit the price investors might be willing to pay in the future for our Class A common stock and could entrench management.”
Removed heading “General Risk Factors”
Removed heading “We are a recently formed company with no operating history and no revenues, and you have no basis on which to evaluate our ability to achieve our business objective.”
Removed heading “We are an emerging growth company and a smaller reporting company within the meaning of the Securities Act, and if we take advantage of certain exemptions from disclosure requirements available to emerging growth companies or smaller reporting companies, this could make our securities less attractive to investors and may make it more difficult to compare our performance with other public companies.”
Removed heading “Cyber incidents or attacks directed at us could result in information theft, data corruption, operational disruption and/or financial loss.”
Removed heading “We have identified a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting relating to our inadequate control for the withdrawal of funds from the Trust Account as of December 31, 2023. If we are unable to develop and maintain an effective system of internal control over financial reporting, we may not be able to accurately report our financial results in a timely manner, which may adversely affect investor confidence in us and materially and adversely affect our business and operating results.”
Removed heading “We, and following our initial business combination, the post-business combination company, may face litigation and other risks as a result of the material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting.”

An investment in our common stock involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider the risks described below before making an investment decision in our securities. These risk factors are effective as of the date of this Form 10-K and shall be deemed to be modified or superseded to the extent that a statement contained in our future filings modifies or replaces such statement. All of these risks may impair our business operations. The forward-looking statements in this Form 10-K involve risks and uncertainties and actual results may differ materially from the results we discuss in the forward-looking statements. If any of the following risks actually occur, our business, financial condition or results of operations could be materially adversely affected. In that case, the trading price of our stock could decline, and you may lose all or part of your investment.
Risk Factor Summary
The below summary of risk factors provides an overview of many of the risks we are exposed to in the normal course of our business activities. As a result, the below summary risks do not contain all of the information that may be important to you, and you should read the summary risks together with the more detailed discussion of risks set forth following this section as well as elsewhere in this Annual Report. Additional risks, beyond those summarized below or discussed elsewhere in this Annual Report, may apply to our activities or operations as currently conducted or as we may conduct them in the future or in the markets in which we operate or may in the future operate. Consistent with the foregoing, we are exposed to a variety of risks, including risks associated with the following:
Risks Related to Our Business and Industry
We may be unable to enforce or recover under certain carbon credit purchase agreements.
Our ability to recognize value from carbon credit purchase agreements depends on counterparties delivering contracted credits. In certain cases, including our Paytech Ipixuna transaction, delivery has been delayed or disputed. Failure to resolve such issues or enforce our contractual rights could adversely affect our results and asset values.
We have limited operating history and financial results, which make our future results, prospects and the risks we may encounter difficult to predict. We have not generated any revenue to date.
We have a limited operating history upon which you can evaluate our business and prospects. We have never generated any revenue and are subject to business risks and uncertainties associated with starting a new business, including the risk that we will not achieve our financial objectives as estimated by our management. Since our formation in 2021, our operations to date have been limited primarily to organizing and staffing our company, business planning, raising capital, making carbon credits streaming project investments and signing contracts for the generation and sale of carbon credits. In addition, we have limited experience and have not yet demonstrated an ability to successfully overcome many of the risks and uncertainties frequently encountered by companies in new and rapidly evolving fields, particularly in the renewable energy industry.
The nature of our operations is highly speculative and there is a consequent risk of loss of investment. The success of our activities will depend on management’s ability to implement its strategy and on the availability of opportunities related to carbon credit trading, stream agreements for carbon credits, and greenhouse gas emission avoidance, reduction, and sequestration programs; government regulations; commitments to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by corporations, organizations, and individuals; and general economic conditions. There is no certainty that anticipated outcomes and sustainable revenue streams will be achieved and there is no certainty that we will continue to successfully make acquisitions of carbon credits, streams, or other interests, or that current or future carbon credits, streams, or other interests acquired by us will be profitable. In particular, our future growth and prospects will depend on our ability to expand our portfolio of investments while at the same time maintaining effective cost controls. Any failure to expand would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations. Because of the uncertainties and risks associated with these activities, we are unable to accurately and precisely predict the timing and amount of revenues, the extent of any further losses or if or when we might achieve profitability. Even if we do achieve profitability, we may not be able to sustain or increase profitability on a quarterly or annual basis.
Our failure to become and remain profitable may depress the market price of our common shares and could impair our ability to raise capital, expand our business, or continue our operations. If we continue to suffer losses as we have in the past, investors may not receive any return on their investment and may lose their entire investment.
We have incurred significant losses and expect to incur additional expenses and continuing losses for the foreseeable future, and we may not achieve or maintain profitability.
We have incurred significant operating losses. Our operating losses were $12,067,231 and $9,871,748 for the years ended July 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. We may continue to incur operating losses in the future as we expect to incur additional costs as we develop our business and expand our portfolio of investments, which may be more costly than we expect and may not result in increased revenue, profits or growth in our business. Such costs include increased overhead costs, marketing and promotion costs, general and administrative expenses and costs associated with operating as a public company. Other unanticipated costs may also arise. Our ability to continue as a going concern will depend on the completion of the Business Combination Agreement or our ability to obtain sufficient funding from other sources. Our financial statements for the years ended July 31, 2025 and 2024 do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty and have been prepared on a basis that assumes we will continue as a going concern, as described in the notes to our financial statements included elsewhere in this Annual Report.
We have not yet started delivering carbon credits to any current or potential partners, making it difficult to predict our future operating results, and we believe that we will continue to incur operating losses until at least the time we begin delivering carbon credits. As a result, our losses may be larger than anticipated, and we may not achieve profitability when expected, or at all, and even if we do, we may not be able to maintain or increase profitability.
We expect our operating expenses to increase as we further develop our business. We expect the rate at which we incur losses will be higher as we engage in the following activities:
Because we will continue to incur the costs and expenses from these efforts before we receive any associated revenue, our losses in future periods could be significant. In addition, we may find that these efforts are more expensive than we currently anticipate or that these efforts may not result in the revenue we anticipate, which would further increase our losses. Furthermore, if our future growth and operating performance fails to meet investor or analyst expectations, or if we have future negative cash flow or losses resulting from our investment in acquiring customers or expanding our operations, this could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
We may lack sufficient funds to achieve our planned business objectives and may seek to raise further funds through equity or debt financing or other means. An inability to access the capital or financial markets may limit our ability to fund our ongoing operations and execute our business plan to pursue investments that we may rely on for future growth.
We have had negative cash flow from operations since our inception on August 27, 2021. We will operate at a loss until we are able to realize cash flow from our investments or carbon management contracts. We may require additional financing to fund the business, business expansion, and/or negative cash flow. Our ability to arrange such financing in the future will depend, in part, upon prevailing capital market conditions, as well as business success. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in our efforts to arrange additional financing on satisfactory terms, or at all. We cannot predict with certainty the timing or amount of any such capital requirements. If additional financing is raised by the issuance of shares from treasury, control of our company may change, and the shareholders may suffer additional dilution. If adequate funds are not available, or are not available on acceptable terms, we may not be able to operate our business at maximum potential, to expand, to take advantage of other opportunities, or

The terms of the Helena Note Purchase Agreement create significant risks that may adversely affect our financial condition, operations, and the value of our common stock.
We entered into the Helena Note Purchase Agreement under which we may sell to Helena up to an aggregate of $300 million in newly issued senior secured convertible notes, to be sold in multiple tranches. The Helena Purchase Agreement provides for an initial closing of $10 million of Helena Convertible Notes. Thereafter, subsequent closings may occur, in increments of $5 million, provided that the outstanding Aggregate Principal Amount of all Helena Convertible Notes issued under prior tranches is less than $2 million and certain other conditions stipulated by the Purchase Agreement are satisfied, of which there can be no assurances. The Helena Note Purchase Agreement contains terms that may expose us and purchasers of our common stock to risks, including:
• Dependence on Investor funding conditions. We are not assured of receiving the proceeds of any future tranche. Each subsequent tranche is subject to closing conditions outside our control, including (1) that for each Trading Day in the 30-calendar day period immediately preceding such Closing Date the daily traded volume of the Common Shares on the Trading Market shall be in excess of $500,000.00, (2) our shareholders have approved the issuance to Common Shares to Helena in excess of 19.99% of our outstanding shares at the time we closed the Helena Purchase Agreement, and (3) the Common Shares issuable upon the conversion of the Helena Convertible Notes may be resold without a legend pursuant to an effective registration statement or pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act. We may not be able to satisfy all such conditions, in which event we may not be able to sell any further Helena Convertible Notes to Helena, which could materially harm our liquidity. If we are unable to meet these or other conditions, we may be denied access to future tranche proceeds, which could materially harm our liquidity.
If any of the foregoing risks materialize, our financial condition could be materially harmed, our ability to operate and grow our business could be constrained, and the market price of our common stock could decline.
If the assumptions used to determine our market opportunity are inaccurate, our future growth rate may be affected and the potential growth of our business may be limited.
Market opportunity estimates and growth strategies are subject to significant uncertainty and are based on assumptions and estimates that may not prove to be accurate, and as such the estimates of growth included in this annual report may prove to be inaccurate and may not be indicative of future growth. As the royalty and stream financing model is relatively new in the carbon credit industry, it may not gain acceptance or experience widespread growth. The majority of our current investment opportunity pipeline represents an estimate by management based on potential transactions which remain under various states of non-binding proposals and negotiations. To date, we have entered into seven definitive agreements and one offtake agreement. There can be no assurance that we will be able to enter into further definitive agreements for or complete the acquisition of, all or any other investments identified in our opportunity pipeline, or successfully monetize any carbon credits we may acquire. Further, our estimate of the total addressable market may not prove to be accurate and, even if the estimate of market opportunity and growth strategy does prove to be accurate, we could fail to capture a significant portion, or any portion, of the available market.
If demand for carbon credits does not grow as expected or develops more slowly than expected, our revenues may stagnate or decline and our business may be adversely affected.
The demand for, and the market price of, carbon credits can be adversely affected by any number of factors, including the implementation of lower emission infrastructure, an increase in the number of projects generating carbon credits, invention of new technology that assists in the avoidance, reduction or sequestration of emissions, increased use of alternative fuels, a decrease in the price of conventional fossil fuels, increased use of renewable energy, and the implementation and operation of carbon pricing initiatives such as carbon taxes and emissions trading systems (“ETSs”). There can be no assurance that carbon pricing initiatives or compliance or voluntary carbon markets will continue to exist. Carbon pricing initiatives may be subject to policy and political changes and may otherwise be diminished, terminated or not renewed upon their expiration. In addition, the demand for carbon credits is driven by the social and political demand to reduce greenhouse gas emissions globally. Any decrease in such social and political demand could limit opportunities in the marketplace for carbon credits and decrease the price of carbon, which would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.
The carbon credit market is competitive, and we expect to face increasing competition in many aspects of our business, which could cause operating results to suffer.
There are many organizations, companies, non-profits, governments, asset managers and individuals that are buyers of carbon credits, or rights to or interest in carbon credits, and there is currently a limited supply of carbon credits, projects to generate future carbon credits and investment opportunities in carbon credits. We expect competitors to enter the carbon credit streaming space, and that many of these competitors will be larger, more established companies with substantial financial resources, operational capabilities, and long track-records in carbon markets. In the future, we may be at a competitive disadvantage in investing in carbon projects, acquiring carbon credits or interests in carbon credits, whether by way of purchases in carbon markets, streams, or other forms of investment, as our future competitors may have greater financial resources and technical staff. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that we will be able to compete successfully against other companies in building a portfolio of carbon credits and carbon credit-related investments. Our inability to acquire carbon credits and streams may result in a material and adverse effect on our profitability, results of operation and financial condition.
The carbon market is an emerging market and its growth is dependent on the development of a commercialized market for carbon credits.
From a global perspective, the market for carbon credits continues to be at a nascent stage. However, there can be no guarantee that the development of carbon markets will continue to occur at the expected rate or at all. Any such delay or failure to further develop a commercialized market could reduce demand for carbon credits or streams, which would significantly harm our expected revenues. Further, we may be unable to recover any losses or expenses incurred, or which we expect to continue to incur, in our investments in or related to carbon credits.
Because our business is significantly concentrated in carbon credits and the carbon market, we are susceptible to adverse economic or regulatory occurrences materially and adversely affecting our performance.
Our business is to invest in carbon credits, and businesses or investments related to carbon credits, and we have only invested in carbon credits streaming projects to date. Adverse events affecting the development and operation of our carbon credits streaming projects may have a material adverse effect on our profitability, financial condition and results of operations. While we intend to continue entering into stream arrangements and investments in a large number of carbon credits with exposure to a wide variety of projects and attributes, we can provide no assurances that we can achieve such diversification. We expect that, at the very least in the near-term, we will continue to have a significant portion of our assets dedicated to a small number of carbon credit projects, businesses and investments related to carbon credits.
Even if we achieve diversification with respect to our carbon credit investments, our investment portfolio will be more at risk to adverse economic or regulatory occurrences affecting carbon credits generally than an investment fund that holds a diversified portfolio of securities, given our concentration in the carbon credit and carbon market space.
We have identified a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting. If we are unable to remediate this material weakness, or if we identify additional material weaknesses in the future or otherwise fail to maintain an effective system of internal control over financial reporting, we may not be able to accurately or timely report our financial condition or results of operations, which may adversely affect investor confidence in us and the market price of our common shares.
While we and our independent registered public accounting firm did not and were not required to perform an audit of our internal control over financial reporting, in connection with the audit of our 2023 consolidated financial statements, we identified control deficiencies in the design and operation of our internal control over financial reporting that constituted a material weakness. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected in a timely manner.
We did not design or maintain an effective control environment commensurate with financial reporting requirements. Specifically, we did not consistently have documented evidence of review procedures and, due to resource limitations, did not always maintain segregation of duties between preparing and reviewing analyses, and reconciliations. These control deficiencies could result in a misstatement of our accounts or disclosures that would result in a material misstatement of our financial results that would not be prevented or detected, and accordingly, we determined that these control deficiencies constitute a material weakness.
We are working to remediate the material weakness and are taking steps to strengthen our internal control over financial reporting through the hiring of additional appropriately skilled finance and accounting personnel with the requisite technical knowledge and skills, which may be costly and time consuming. With additional skilled personnel, we are taking appropriate and reasonable steps to remediate this material weakness through the implementation of appropriate segregation of duties, formalization of accounting policies and controls and retention of appropriate expertise for complex accounting transactions. We will not be able to fully remediate these control deficiencies until these steps have been completed and have been operating effectively for a sufficient period of time.
We cannot assure you that the measures we have taken to date and those we expect to take in the future will be sufficient to remediate the material weakness we identified or avoid the identification of additional material weaknesses in the future. If the steps we take do not remediate the material weakness in a timely manner, there could continue to be a reasonable possibility that this material weakness or other control deficiencies could result in a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements that would not be prevented or detected on a timely basis, which could in turn cause the market price of our common shares to decline significantly and make raising capital more difficult. If we fail to remediate our material weakness, identify future material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting or fail to meet the demands that will be placed upon us as a public company, including the requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (“SOX”), we may be unable to accurately report our financial results or report them within the timeframes required by law or stock exchange regulations. Failure to comply with Section 404 of SOX could also potentially subject us to sanctions or investigations by the SEC or other regulatory authorities. If additional material weaknesses exist or are discovered in the future, and we are unable to remediate any such material weakness, our reputation, results of operations and financial condition could suffer.
If we fail to retain our key personnel or if we fail to attract additional qualified personnel, we may not be able to achieve our anticipated level of growth and our business could suffer.
We are dependent upon the continued availability and commitment of our key management, including Sunny Trinh, Chris Merkel, and David Goertz. The loss of any such members could negatively impact business operations. From time to time, we will also need to identify and retain additional skilled management and specialized technical personnel to efficiently operate the business. The number of persons experienced in carbon markets and the origination, registration, selling and trading of carbon credits is limited, and competition for such persons can be intense. In addition, the number of persons skilled in structuring streams is limited. Recruiting and retaining qualified personnel is critical to our success and there can be no assurance of such success. If we are not successful in attracting and training qualified personnel, our ability to execute our business model and growth strategy could be affected, which could have a material adverse impact on our profitability, results of operations and financial condition.
Increased scrutiny of ESG matters, including our completion of certain ESG initiatives, could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations, result in reputational harm and negatively impact the assessments made by ESG-focused investors when evaluating us.
We are increasingly facing more stringent ESG standards, policies and expectations, and expect to continue to do so as a listed company following the Closing with growing operations. Companies across all industries are facing increasing scrutiny from a variety of stakeholders, including investor advocacy groups, proxy advisory firms, certain institutional investors and lenders, investment funds and other influential investors and rating agencies, related to their ESG and sustainability practices. We generally experience a strong ESG emphasis among our customers, partners and competitors. Some of these stakeholders maintain standards, policies and expectations regarding environmental matters (e.g., climate change and sustainability), social matters (e.g., diversity and human rights) and corporate governance matters (e.g., taking into account employee relations when making business and investment decisions, ethical matters and the composition of the board of directors and various committees). There is no guarantee that we will be able to comply with applicable ESG standards, policies and expectations, or that we will, from the perspective of other stakeholders and the public, appear to be complying with such ESG standards, policies and expectations. If we do not adapt to or comply with investor or other stakeholder standards, policies, or expectations on ESG matters as they continue to evolve, or if we are perceived to have not responded appropriately or quickly enough to growing concern for ESG and sustainability issues, regardless of whether there is a regulatory or legal requirement to do so, we may suffer from reputational damage and our business, financial condition and/or stock price could be materially and adversely affected.
While we may at times engage in or prepare voluntary ESG initiatives and disclosures to respond to stakeholder expectations or to improve our ESG profile, such initiatives and disclosures may be costly and may not have the desired effect. Expectations regarding our management of ESG matters continue to evolve rapidly, in many instances due to factors that are beyond our control. For example, we may ultimately be unable to complete certain initiatives or targets, either on the timelines initially announced or at all, due to technological, cost, or other constraints, which may be within or outside of our control. Moreover, our ESG actions or statements may be based on expectations, assumptions, or third-party information that we currently believe to be reasonable, but which may subsequently be determined to be erroneous or be subject to misinterpretation. If we fail to, or are perceived to fail to, implement certain ESG initiatives or achieve certain ESG objectives, we may be subject to various adverse impacts, including reputational damage and potential stakeholder engagement and/or litigation, even if such initiatives are currently voluntary. Certain market participants, including major institutional investors and capital providers, use third-party benchmarks and scores to assess companies’ ESG profiles in making investment or voting decisions. Unfavorable ESG ratings could lead to increased negative investor sentiment towards us or our industry and to the diversion of investment to other industries, which could negatively impact our share price as well as our access to and cost of capital.
Moreover, because of the industry we are in, any of our operational or strategic efforts may be viewed as relating to our ESG initiatives and, even if those initiatives are undertaken voluntarily, they may still be viewed as relating to our operational and strategic efforts. This means that if we fail, or are perceived to fail, to implement certain ESG initiatives or achieve certain ESG objectives it could have a disproportionately negative impact on our business.
Actual or perceived failure to comply with ESG standards may detrimentally affect our business in a variety of ways. Among others, we could face challenges with procuring investments and financing, whether for general business purposes or for specific projects, and we could have difficulty attracting or retaining employees. Accordingly, failure to establish a sufficiently strong ESG profile relative to our peers could limit our ability to generate and successfully utilize business opportunities. We also note that divergent views regarding ESG principles are emerging in the U.S., and in particular, in U.S. state-level regulation and enforcement efforts. In the future, various U.S. regulators, state actors and other stakeholders may have views on ESG matters, the renewable energy industry, the energy transition or our business that are unfavorable to our business or operations, or such stakeholders may seek to impose additional regulation and restrictions on us or our business. Any such events could have material adverse effects on our business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flow and prospects.
We also expect there will likely be increasing levels of regulation, disclosure-related and otherwise, with respect to ESG matters. We may be subject to ESG or sustainability-related regulation in multiple jurisdictions, including the U.S., and complying with these regulations in multiple jurisdictions may increase the complexity and cost of our compliance efforts. Moreover, increased regulation and increased stakeholder expectations will likely lead to increased costs as well as scrutiny that could heighten all of the risks identified in this risk factor. Additionally, many of our customers and suppliers may be subject to similar expectations, which may augment or create additional risks, including risks that may not be known to us.
Our ability to realize projects could be impaired if we fail to adhere to common ESG standards in our industry. Moreover, such failure could result in reputational damage for us among both potential customers and investors. Any of the foregoing could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flow and prospects.
The market price of our common shares is subject to the price of carbon credits and may decline regardless of our operating performance.
The principal factors anticipated to affect the price of our common shares are factors that may affect the price of carbon credits and are thus beyond our control. The price at which the shares are traded will be influenced by a number of factors, some specific to us and some which may affect listed companies generally. These factors could include our performance, legislative and regulatory changes and general economic, political or regulatory conditions, including the level of commitment to the goals of the United Nations-sponsored Paris Agreement by both governments and corporations and other private and public initiatives aimed at reducing greenhouse gas emissions. Changes in government priorities as a result of government deficits or as a result of changes in the prevailing views concerning the impact of greenhouse gases on climate change could adversely affect the demand for carbon credits and thereby their price. Interpretation and enforcement of environmental legislation will vary by country and is subject to sudden change. Carbon credit prices will also be influenced by infrastructure and technological advances in reducing and sequestering greenhouse gas emissions, and the economics associated with those activities. There can be no assurance that continual fluctuations in the price of carbon credits will not occur. In addition, carbon credits are traded in both the compliance and voluntary markets and the price for a carbon credit varies according to not only the market on which it is traded, but also according to its type, location, vintage, accreditation, and additional social and environmental attributes. It is likely that the market price for our carbon credits will be subject to market trends generally.
Our due diligence process in connection with acquisitions, investments or streaming arrangements that we undertake may not reveal all relevant facts in connection with an acquisition, investment or streaming arrangement.
Before making any decision, we will conduct, or have independent consultants conduct, due diligence investigations that we deem reasonable and appropriate based on the facts and circumstances applicable to each acquisition, investment, or streaming arrangement. When conducting due diligence investigations, we may be required to evaluate important and complex business, environmental, financial, tax, accounting, regulatory, technical, and legal issues. Outside consultants, legal advisors, accountants, and investment banks may be involved in the due diligence process in varying degrees depending on the type of investment. Nevertheless, when conducting due diligence investigations and making an assessment regarding an acquisition, investment or streaming arrangement, we rely on resources available, including information provided by the target of the acquisition or investment, the parties to the streaming arrangement and, in some circumstances, third party investigations. The due diligence investigations that are carried out with respect to any opportunity may not reveal or highlight all relevant facts that may be necessary.
We may not realize the anticipated benefits of past or future acquisitions, and integration of these acquisitions may disrupt our business.
As part of our business strategy, we may seek to grow by acquiring companies and/or assets or establishing joint ventures that we believe will complement our current or future business. Acquisition transactions involve inherent risks, including but not limited to: accurately assessing the value, strengths, weaknesses, contingent and other liabilities and potential profitability of acquisition candidates; ability to achieve identified and anticipated operating and financial synergies; unanticipated costs; diversion of management attention; potential loss of our key employees or key employees of any business acquired; unanticipated changes in business, industry or general economic conditions that affect the assumptions underlying the acquisition; and decline in the value of acquired assets, companies or securities. Any one or more of these factors or other risks could cause us not to realize the anticipated benefits of an acquisition of assets or companies and could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition. We may not effectively select acquisition candidates or negotiate or finance acquisitions or integrate the acquired businesses and their personnel or acquire assets for our business. We cannot guarantee that we can complete any acquisition we pursue on favorable terms, or that any acquisitions completed will ultimately benefit our business.
Our long-term success depends, in part, on properties and assets developed and managed by third-party project developers, owners and operators.
Carbon credits we receive are derived from projects that are operated by third parties. These third parties will be responsible for determining the manner in which the relevant properties are developed, operated and managed, including decisions that could expand, continue or reduce the number of carbon credits generated from a property or an asset. As a holder of streams or other interests, we may have little or no input on such matters. Our interests and those of third parties on the relevant properties or assets may not always be aligned. For example, in some cases, it may be in our best interest to advance development as rapidly as possible to maximize the receipt of near-term carbon credits, while third-party project developers, owners and operators may, in many cases, take a more cautious approach to development as they assume risk on the cost of development and operations. Our inability to control the operations of the properties or assets in which we have a stream or other interest may have a material adverse effect on our profitability, results of operation and financial condition.
We may have limited access to data and disclosure regarding the operations or projects for which we are not developer, owner or operator. This limited access may restrict our ability to assess the value and performance of our operations.
As a holder of streams and other non-operator interests, we do not serve as the project developer, owner or operator, and in almost all cases, we have no input into how the project is developed or the operations are conducted. As a result, we have limited access to data in the operations or to the actual projects themselves. This could affect our ability to assess the value of our streams or enhance their performance. This could also result in delays in the receipt of carbon credits we anticipate based on the stage of development of the applicable properties or assets covered by our streams. In addition, some streams may be subject to confidentiality arrangements which govern the disclosure of information regarding streams, and as such, we may not be in a position to publicly disclose non-public information with respect thereto. The limited access to data and disclosure regarding the operations of the properties or assets in which we have an interest may restrict our ability to assess the value or enhance our performance, which may have a material adverse effect on our profitability, results of operation and financial condition.
Our streams are largely contract-based and the terms of such contracts may not be honored by developers or operators of a project.
Streams are largely contract-based, and the terms of which may be subject to interpretation or technical defects. To the extent grantors of streams and other interests do not abide by their contractual obligations, we may be forced to take legal action to enforce our contractual rights. Further, not all project developers, owners or operators are credit worthy. Such litigation may be time consuming and costly, and there is no guarantee we will succeed. If such litigation leads to an adverse decision to us, our profitability, results of operations and financial condition could be materially adversely affected.
We may acquire future streams in which we have limited control and our interests in such streams may be subject to transfer or other related restrictions.

Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with DevvStream’s consolidated financial statements and related notes for the year ended July 31, 2025 and 2024 (“consolidated financial statements”), which have been prepared in accordance with US GAAP and are included elsewhere in this report. This discussion contains forward-looking statements reflecting our current expectations, estimates and assumptions concerning events and financial trends that may affect our future operating results or financial position. Actual results and the timing of events may differ materially from those contained in these forward-looking statements due to a number of factors, including those described in our other SEC filings, including those discussed in the sections titled “Risk Factors” and “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” in our Current Report on Form 8-K/A filed with the SEC on March 7, 2025. All figures are in US dollars unless otherwise noted. Unless the context otherwise requires, for the purposes of this section, “DevvStream,” “we,” “us,” “our,” or the “Company” refer to DevvStream Corp. , a company existing under the Laws of the Province of Alberta, Canada, and its subsidiaries.
The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our audited financial statements and the notes related thereto which
are included in “Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data” of this Report. Certain information contained in the discussion and analysis set forth below includes forward-looking statements. Our actual results may differ materially from
those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of many factors, including those set forth under “Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements,” “Item 1A. Risk Factors” and elsewhere in this Report.
Company Overview
DevvStream is a technology-based sustainability company that advances the development and monetization of environmental assets, with an initial focus on carbon markets. The Company's mission is to create alignment between sustainability and profitability, helping organizations achieve their climate initiatives while directly improving their financial health.
With a diverse approach to the International Renewable Energy Certificate (“I-REC”) and carbon market, DevvStream operates across three strategic domains: (1) an offset portfolio consisting of I-REC’s, nature-based, tech-based, and carbon sequestration credits for immediate sale to corporations and governments seeking to offset their most difficult-to-reduce emissions; (2) project investment, acquisitions, and industry consolidation to extend the Company's reach, allowing it to become a full end-to-end solutions provider; and (3) project development, where the Company serves as project manager for eligible activities such as EV charging in exchange for a percentage of generated credits.
Company Formation and Reverse Takeover Transaction
We are a company existing under the Business Corporations Act of Alberta, Canada. We were a special purpose acquisition corporation (“SPAC”) incorporated in Delaware, the United States on February 23, 2021.
On September 12, 2023 (and as amended May 1, 2024, August 10, 2024, and October 29, 2024, the “Business Combination Agreement”, or “BCA”), we entered into a Business Combination Agreement with DevvStream Holdings Inc. (the ‘‘Business Combination’’ or the ‘‘De-SPAC Transaction’’). The Business Combination was structured as an amalgamation of DevvStream Holdings Inc. (“Devv Holdings”) into a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, following our redomiciling as an Alberta company. We were then renamed from Focus Impact Acquisition Corp. to DevvStream Corp. and continue the business of Devv Holdings following the amalgamation. It was a condition of the transaction that the securities of the Combined Company will be listed on NASDAQ.
On November 6, 2024, we completed the business combination with Devv Holdings, pursuant to the BCA. In connection with the completion of the business combination, we consolidated all of our issued and outstanding common stock on a 1:0.9692 basis. All the outstanding Devv Holdings subordinate voting shares (“SVS”) were exchanged for common stock of the Company on a common conversion ratio of 0.152934 (the “Common Conversion Ratio”). All the outstanding Devv Holdings multiple voting shares (“MVS”), being the equivalent of 10 SVS, were exchanged for common stock of the Company on the basis of the Common Conversion Ratio. In addition, all of the outstanding convertible securities of Devv Holdings were exchanged for securities of the Company on the basis of the Common Conversion Ratio, with corresponding adjustments to exercise prices, and otherwise on substantially the same economic terms and conditions. Our common shares commenced trading on the NASDAQ under the new ticker symbol “DEVS” on November 7, 2024.
Devv Holdings is deemed as the acquirer for accounting purposes, and therefore its assets, liabilities and operations are included in the consolidated financial statements at their historical carrying value. Our operations are considered to be a continuance of the business and operations of Devv Holdings. Our results of operations are those of Devv Holdings, with our operations being included from November 6, 2024, the closing date of the De-SPAC Transaction, onwards.
Recent Developments
Change in Functional Currency
Effective August 1, 2024, the Company reassessed its functional currency and the functional currency of its subsidiaries due to changes in underlying transactions, events, and conditions. As a result of this reassessment, the Company determined that its functional currency changed from the Canadian dollar (“CAD$”) to the United States dollar (“US$”) for DevvStream Holdings Inc. and its subsidiary, Devvstream Inc. (“DESG”). The functional currency for DevvESG Streaming Finco Ltd. (“Finco”), another subsidiary of ours, remained CAD$. This change aligns with the business's future focus and the effective date of the Focus Impact Acquisition Corp.'s Form S-4 Registration Statement with the SEC, a crucial part of the De-SPAC transaction closing. The change in functional currency was accounted for prospectively from August 1, 2024, with no impact on prior year comparative information. Upon the change in functional currency on August 1, 2024, 121,995 of the Company’s warrants which had strike prices denominated in CAD$ were reclassified as warrant liabilities. Determining the functional currency involved significant judgments to assess the primary economic environment in which the Company operates, including factors such as the currency of underlying transactions, the location of key operations, and the currency of expected cash flows. Upon the completion of the De-SPAC Transaction on November 6, 2024, 62,772 of the Company’s stock options which had strike prices denominated in CAD$ were reclassified as stock option liabilities, as exemptions from classification from derivative liability classification under ASC 718-10-25-14 that were previously applicable upon change in functional currency no longer apply upon the commencement of trading of the Company’s common shares on the NASDAQ.
Cryptocurrency Treasury Strategy
On July 17, 2025, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement with Helena for the issuance of up to fifty-nine tranches of convertible notes (“Crypto Strategy Convertible Debt”) for a total principal amount of $300,000,000, with closings of each tranche subject to fulfillment of conditions. Each tranche will have an issuance discount of 8%, and bear interest at a rate of 8% per annum, with a maturity date of 18 months from the date of funding. Interest shall be payable by the Company on the first day of each month. The securities purchase agreement will terminate automatically on July 17, 2027.
The principal loan amount and any accrued interest under the Crypto Strategy Convertible Debt in issuance are convertible into common stock of the Company at the option of the holder at 95% of the lowest daily volume weighted average price of the Company’s shares during the 5 preceding trading days, subject to a floor price of $0.7722, and a cap price of $7.722. If the Company issues any debt or equity, the lenders have the option to cause the Company to direct 25% of aggregate proceeds of such issuances to repay the Crypto Strategy Convertible Debt. The Company has a right to prepay the whole or any portion of the principal amount, together with any accrued interest, at any time prior to the maturity date without notice or a penalty payment.
During the period ending on the later of (i) 12 months after the closing date of the initial tranche of the Crypto Strategy Convertible Debt, and (ii) the termination of the securities purchase agreement for the Crypto Strategy Convertible Debt, if the Company offers new securities for sale, the lenders have first refusal to up to 25% of the new securities being offered.
The proceeds of the Crypto Strategy Convertible Debt are subject to restrictions of use, with 70% of the net proceeds of the initial tranche, and 75% of the net proceeds of the subsequent tranches are required to be used to purchase cryptocurrencies. The Crypto Strategy Convertible Debt is secured by up to $20,000,000 of proceeds from the Crypto Strategy Convertible Debt, held in a segregated account for trading in cryptocurrencies. The segregated account is subject to a crypto control account agreement, which requires lenders’ approval for actions taken in the segregated account.
On July 17, 2025, the Company closed the initial tranche of the Crypto Strategy Convertible Debt in the principal amount of $10,000,000, for gross proceeds of $9,200,000, with a maturity date of January 17, 2027. The Company also incurred $85,000 in transaction costs in connection with the issuance. $6,405,000 of net proceeds are intended for the purchase of cryptocurrencies. As of July 31, 2025, $6,405,000 are held as cash in a segregated account, and are thus presented as restricted cash in the consolidated balance sheet.
On August 1, 2025, the Company started deploying funds raised from its senior secured convertible notes facility with Helena Global Investment Opportunities I Ltd. (“Helena”) for purchases of Bitcoin and Solana, as part of the operational launch of the Company’s digital treasury strategy, supporting the Company’s long-term objectives in and the industry’s move towards sustainability-linked tokenization.

Risks related to the Southern Energy Renewables Inc. (Southern) Merger
The pending MergerMergers with SouthernXCF, andSouthern, SierraDevvStream Merger Sub, Inc.and Southern Merger Sub may be delayed or may not be completed, and the applicable MergerBusiness Combination Agreement may be terminated in accordance with its terms.

No assurance can be given as to the timing of the satisfaction or waiver of these conditions or that these conditions will be satisfied or waived at all. Accordingly, there can be no assurance as to whether or when the Merger will be completed.
In addition, either the Company or Southern may terminate the Merger Agreement under certain circumstances, including if the Merger is not completed by September 3, 2026 (which date may be extended by thirty or sixty days, under certain circumstances).
Litigation relating to the Merger,Mergers, if any, could delay or prevent the completion of the MergerMergers and result in substantial costs to the Company.
Governmental authorities or other third parties with appropriate standing may file litigation challenging the MergerMergers and seeking an order enjoining or otherwise delaying or prohibiting the completion of the Merger.Mergers. If any such litigation is successful, then such order may prevent the MergerMergers from being completed, or from being completed within the expected time frame. There can be no assurance that the Company or any other defendants would be successful in the outcome of any potential future lawsuits. Even if a lawsuit is without merit, it could result in substantial costs to the Company and divert management time and resources.
Failure to complete the MergerMergers could negatively impact the Company.
If the MergerMergers isare not completed for any reason, the ongoing business and financial condition of the Company may be adversely affected, including in the following ways:
the Company will have incurred, and may continue to incur, significant costs relating to the Merger,Mergers, such as investment banking, legal, accounting and financial advisor fees and expenses, that it may not be able to recover;
the Company will have expended significant time and resources that could otherwise have been spent on its existing business or the pursuantpursuit of other opportunities without realizing any of the potential benefits associated with the MergerMergers; and the Company may face litigation related to the failure to complete the MergerMergers or an enforcement proceeding with respect to its obligations under the Merger Agreement.BCA.
In addition, if the Merger AgreementBCA is terminated and the Company seeks an alternative transaction, there can be no guarantee that it will be able to find or complete an alternative transaction on more attractive terms than the MergerMergers or at all.
The Merger AgreementBCA restricts the Company’s business activities prior to the completion of the Merger.Mergers.
The Merger AgreementBCA places certain restrictions on the operations of the Company and restricts the Company andfrom taking certain other specified actions without the consent of XCF and Southern until the completion of the MergerMergers or the termination of the Merger Agreement.BCA. These restrictions, which could be in place for an extended period of time if the completion of the MergerMergers is delayed, could prevent the Company from pursuing attractive business opportunities that may arise prior to completion of the MergerMergers or from making appropriate changes to business or organizational structure. This could in turn adversely impact the Company’s results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.
The Merger,Mergers, including uncertainty regarding the Merger,Mergers, could disrupt the Company’s business relationships and adversely affect the Company’s ability to effectively manage its business.
As discussed above, the completion of the MergerMergers is subject to the satisfaction or waiver of several conditions. Many of these conditions are outside the Company’s control. Furthermore, botheach of the CompanyCompany, XCF, and Southern have certain rights to terminate the Merger Agreement.BCA. Accordingly, there may be uncertainty regarding the completion of the Merger.Mergers. This uncertainty may cause customers, suppliers, vendors, strategic partners or other parties that have business relationships with the Company to delay or defer entering into contracts with, or making other decisions concerning, the Company or to seek to change or cancel existing business relationships with the Company, which could negatively affect the Company’s business regardless of whether the MergerMergers isare ultimately completed. This could in turn adversely impact the Company’s results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.
The Merger,Mergers, regardless of whether itthey isare completed, will continue to divert resources from ordinary operations, which could adversely affect the Company’s business.
The Company has diverted the attention of management and other resources to the Merger.Mergers. Whether or not the MergerMergers isare completed, the pendency of the MergerMergers will continue to divert the attention of management and other resources from day-to-day operations to the completion of the Merger.Mergers. This diversion of management attention and other resources could adversely affect the Company’s ongoing business regardless of whether the MergerMergers isare completed.
The Company has incurred and expects to continue to incur a number of non-recurring costs associated with negotiating and completing the Merger.Mergers. These costs and expenses have been, and will continue to be, significant. These costs and expenses include fees paid or payable to financial, legal and accounting advisors, potential employment-related costs, filing fees, printing expenses and other related charges. Some of these costs are payable by the Company regardless of whether the MergerMergers isare completed. While the Company has assumed that a certain level of expenses would be incurred in connection with the Merger,Mergers, there are many factors beyond its control that could affect the total amount or the timing of these expenses.
